Season of Creation:
24th Sunday in Ordinary Time
The music for the remainder of September should be finalized this week (one minor change to 09/29). This Saturday will be our last week of doing repeating songs for the Season of Creation; the programs for 09/22 and 09/29 will be normal. Note, however, that Jim and Bev are out on the 29th, so I'm looking into coverage for that week.
Finally, with December right around the corner, it's not too early to start thinking about music for Christmas. The holiday season tends to sneak up on us fast, and I'd love to pull together some more complex instrumental and/or choral pieces this year. Open to suggestions if you have any thoughts.
Ben and Lisa (tentative) are out this week.
UPDATE: 09/12: Joe is out this week.
UPDATE: 09/12: Final music selections and cantor schedule are now available. Thanks for bearing with all the changes this month!
UPDATE: 09/14: Maggie also out this week.
Nice job last week! Father Charlie was out, so Father Baker filled in as our visiting priest. We received several compliments from parishioners on our music, especially the violin parts on Lord, Every Nation and I Am the Bread of Life (check those out if you have a chance :-).

A reminder to please take a look at Table Song, our new Communion piece this week. We briefly touched on this during practice last Saturday. Since there's quite a bit going on in terms of harmonies and descants, let's focus on main melody (upper line, middle system) for now. If we end up doing this as a common Communion song at some point, we can worry about the other parts.
